Merlin, according to legend, was said to have been responsible for transporting the stones of ‘Stonehenge’ from Ireland to England. Although in other legends it is Merlin that tells ‘Aurelius, King of Britain’ to bring the stones (referred to as the ‘Giant’s Dance’) to England from Ireland for two reasons; firstly, to act as a monument to those that had died during the battles with the Saxons, and secondly because the stones possessed great powers of healing.
It should be pointed out that Stonehenge is believed to have been built 1700-1800BC, later used a ritualistic place of worship by the Druid’s who are known to have been around during the legendary time of Merlin and Arthur.
